Do you need something other than the "choose folder" scripting addition
command that's part of the Standard Additions scripting addition? It
allows the operator to choose a folder (or volume) from any of the
mounted volumes. It returns the selection as an alias.

set chosenFolder to (choose folder with prompt "Select a destination folder:")
